Grand Rounds
The UNMC Psychiatry Grand Rounds series provides high-quality professional education for clinical staff, house officers, medical students, and other trainees for the department and other interested parties on campus.
The goal of grand rounds is to provide unbiased, scientifically-based information applicable to Psychiatry.
Grand rounds are held bi-monthly at noon, usually on the second and fourth Wednesdays. We invite leading local and national experts to speak on relevant subjects. Commercial bias is purposefully omitted from our grand rounds presentations.
Grand rounds may be live from the fourth floor of Poynter Hall. Most events are viewable on Zoom, beginning 10 minutes prior to their scheduled start.
The ACCME grants accreditation to the University of Nebraska Medical Center for Continuing Education for its provision of continuing medical education for physicians. This live activity is approved by the University of Nebraska Medical Center for Continuing Education for a maximum of 1 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit. Physicians should only claim credit reflecting their actual participation.
